My wife's family home is in Bitola North Macedonia and we have traveled there every year since 2006 for a minimum of a month each time. While there, we like to venture out to several cities in North Macedonia, Turkey, Greece, Albania, etc.
We were in North Macedonia for the month of September 2022 and while there we contacted Teri BALOJANI in Bitola. Teri is the owner of BALOJANI Tourist Services (email address
[email protected] phone +389 75 395 398). As a result of that, we signed up for a 4 day, 3night bus tour of the Island of Corfu Greece, that was going there in the third week of September 2022. I am not into Bus Tours as you would see by my 70 plus reviews on Trip Advisor. What a pleasant surprise this trip was, not just because CORFU is absolutely gorgeous, but the travel agent was with us for the entire tour and never stopped helping us and informing us of all the things tourists would like to see. This tour included the cost of the Ferry ride from Greece to the Island of Corfu, the 4 day 3 night stay at the Hotel ARCHES, a family run hotel in the village of Benitses, which included a good breakfast every morning, full use of the tour bus to the stunning "old town"of CORFU. A visit to two incredible beaches (Paleokstriitsa and another beach that was best suited for surfers).
A visit to an outdoor restaurant that was very high up a mountain and overlooked the bay where the church at Pontikonissi was down and out in that bay (a true Kodak moment). That location also gave us a view of the final approach runway for an airport which allowed us to watch from above, the planes coming in to land at 200Km On the way back to North Macedonia we stopped at the small "castled" city of JANINA that had a gorgeous lake nestled in the mountain and great tasting gyros for lunch. This 4 days was one of the most entertaining 4 days I have ever enjoyed.
In this tour, the location was perfect, the weather was perfect, the water was perfect,
the price was right and our Tour guide Teri BALOJANI was exceptional!! I would do this tour again in a heartbeat, but it would have to be done with Teri at Balojani Tourist Services.
